ok, i rebooted due to an update for chainfire3d. and now the drain is back. i am now charging the phone and will see if it can be fixed like this again.

but i hope the miui devs are aware of this strange issue as only them can fix this.

EDIT: ok. i think i know how to fix the drain: simply charge the phone for a while. not needed to charge to full. it is enough to charge only for a short while. so it must be related to a function related to the battery/charging that seems to have wrong default setting which can be fixed with charging mode.

currently on 1.9.16 with miui.us rom . Is 1.9.30 rom 2.3.7 android ?
[Desire HD Android Development] theLofD:
No, it is 2.3.5.

Btw does USB tethering work with 1.9.30? I flashed it today and just realized that I forgot to make a nandroid backup. :(
[Desire HD Android Development] mad_shadow:
Thx for a kind answer )

I really should guess it my self. almost everything i needed was in the search :rolleyes:

I like the looks of it, it's just all the new settings and stuff available. One thing that puzzled me a bit though, is how you link google contacts to their Facebook profiles? I installed Facebook for Android and the Facebook contacts showed up fine, but I couldn't seem to figure out how to connect "non-automatic" contacts to their profiles?
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
For the contacts that don't sync automatically. If you edit the contact then hit menu and then join.
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
I tried that but didn't see any join option? Could of course just be me missing it...
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
Just in case
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Damnit, now I kinda gotta try again, just to see if it's really that obvious :D
[Desire HD Android Development] theLofD:
I have downloaded MoreLocale2 since I need to use Swedish for some apps (Navigon for Swedish voice direction and market for example).

The problem with that is that for it to work I have to select Sweden as system/location and instead of certain system settings being in English they are now in Chinese.

Is there anyway to set system language to English and apps etc. to Swedish?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hmm, i think this is because the roms default language (internaly) is chinese. miui is a chinese rom. and so some strings seem to fall back to default in that case.

i am not sure if i can do something about this.
[Desire HD Android Development] theLofD:
It's no problem really. I use a locale switch widget for when I need to see what's written in Chinese. Would just be sweet if it was possible to do without. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
you may look for a swedish miui pack. i cuold make it then compatible with my rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] theLofD:
Well I have tried but don't think there is one yet.
[Desire HD Android Development] BumAround:

Regards the chat over at LorDs about display values, maybe a guide in 2nd OP could be good idea for those unsure about advanced brightness levels.

It would be very nice to have values similar to Spyr0s, which lots including yourself used with LeeDrOiD :D

Where can I see on Talon kernel ondemanX the sleep profil? I can not find it. Do you know a user?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
it doesn't have a tunable paramter for that. this tunable paramter is an addition from lord clockan and alienmind to the ondemandx governor. the original ondemandx has something like 384MHz as sleep max frequency and cannot be changed by the user.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
@djcsurf : you are right. i will make this weekend a small guide for this with my values that i use.

Is the batt drain resolved? Is it the kernel? I have Lord kernel.

EDIT: I have recharged my battery and calibrated. Now my batt drain is 2-5mA.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i am not sure what you mean? about which battery drain you are talking? and which kernel?
[Desire HD Android Development] inzaghi75:
I mean the batt drain when you flash the latest MIUI Rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
this battery drain has nothing to do with the kernel used. the reason is unknown but there is at least a solution available that last at least until next reboot.

you simply need to charge the phone a bit then the drain stops. it may come back again after a reboot, though.

Hi, may I ask what is this cleansense theme mentioned here? I had a quick look on themes > local/online (top rated/latest) but I couldn't find it. I tried googling it and search this on the entire XDA place as well. Promise.

Thanks.

hello, i would like to update from 1.9.16v1.1 to latest version.

should i just flash the latest on top of the old version?

thanx
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
a user - flashed this rom last night, and I must say it is much better than the last time I tried MIUI. I am impressed!

I have an Inspire, and am in the US. I noticed in the OP your mention of Europe specific mods in build.prop, etc. Is there anything I need to look to change on my end? I already flashed the inspiremod for audio fix,and universal gps patch. Thanks again!

Hi,

Yes, you can flash on top of .16

But, due to the battery drain, I recomend you to wait until next build is released... version .16 is a great build and bugfree...

best regards
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i repeat this for user of 1.9,30 roms:

you can fix the drain by charging your battery for a short time (half minute is enough). though the drain may come back after a reboot. but it is fixed at least till a reboot.
[Desire HD Android Development] jets76:
Did that, forgot to mention it before. Still no dice....
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
what kernel are you using?

and regarding your sig, you arn't using my rom with the supercharger script... i hope. it breaks several stuff and is useless on my rom anyway.
[Desire HD Android Development] mcastagnaa:

[Desire HD Android Development] Maverik DHD:
hi,

i have installed the official version of miui do i have to wipe before flashing this custom rom?
[Desire HD Android Development] inzaghi75:
only wipe cache and dalvik.
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
I'm pretty sure a users script wipes those anyway

Very disappointed no mention of drain issue, I guess will just have to test & see if still present!!
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i never had this. but i remember one other user had this or something similar. i think he solved it by deleting some files. try unmounting your sdcard, then use root explorer to go to /mnt/sdcard or /sdcard and check if there are some files within (note you must unmount your sdcard first in settings/system/storage). delete what you find there or move it elsewhere.

maybe the guy how had that issue too and solved it could help you more.
[Desire HD Android Development] floepie:
Yeah, but is it even acknowledged by MIUI? Does it affect all devices? This may be a device specific problem, or even a base-specific problem.
[Desire HD Android Development] jets76:
Sorry Delete please

The batt drain is not resolved.
[Desire HD Android Development] clouds5:
I'm having this as well ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Pity...

Guess I'll still give it a whirl to check it out.

As pointed out above I wonder if MIUI are even aware of the drain issue. Am guessing they may follow the .de .us .com etc sites, or maybe not. Is there an official bug list on the chinese site?
[Desire HD Android Development] clouds5:
I was on holiday this week and flashed a backup from a sense rom because of the camera (especially video recording is quite broken on miui). Anyway i reflashed my MIUI backup now because apart from the camera almost everything else is better :D

Now my issue: Since i flashed the backup almost all songs in my playlists are gone. I had one playlist with 90 songs and now there are only 16 in it. The strange thing - i have a backup from earlier in TitaniumBackup. If i reflash data from the backup it shows like this in the music player:

Automix (90)

but when i press on it, i see all 90 songs for like 1 second and then its down to 16 again. I can restore the backed upped data and repeat this process but the songs dont seem to stick :/

Any idea how to prevent them from disappearing?

I'm still on 1.9.23 btw.
[Desire HD Android Development] hawkwind:
The people who are having battery drain, do you use a different kernel from stock and undervolt?

I always have better battery life just using stock kernel with no undervolt, this was the same when using Cyanogen as well.

I had no problems at all with the previous version or the new one up to now on stock with no uv.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
SCI MIUI 1.10.7v1.0 is up...

...loading. in a few minutes its up. have fun.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
drain is stll there. i will y maybe tomorrow a full wipe to see if it fixes it.

also carefull, backup seems to be broken. it force closes when trying to save.
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
too bad for the drain, maybe all of you must report this bug to take it more seriously..

is the drain still there even with stock kernel?
[Desire HD Android Development] inzaghi75:
With the newest Talon kernel the batt drain is gone. I try it now with your kernel.
[Desire HD Android Development] MarcoG::
with the stock Kernel i have the batterydrain,i will test the new Talon.

[Desire HD Android Development] inzaghi75:
Yes your right. It´s the f...ing ROM :D
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
Definately the rom I have tried with stock and lord kernal. Fix is to charge for a little bit. I think the people who are saying the drain is fixed have had the phone on charge for some time and not realised.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i just wiped data to see if a full wipe can solve this. but am waiting for the media scan process to finish. it takes very long on first boot, i mean the media scan.

EDIT: this fixed my miui backup force close issue. still waiting for the media scan to finish.
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
Just updated to the newest release. No wipe and I have normal battery drain. Very odd.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i know, this bug is extremly strange :(

but considering my backup issue it seems it is recommended to do a full wipe. seems much has changed over the past and a full wipe can fix several things.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
full wipe didn't helped solving the drain issue :(
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Can anyone please confirm if both hotspot and tethering are working fine on new release (I know they worked on last release but just in case of a regression, these options are must have for me)

If so then I'll give it a whirl and live with the drain bug.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
@djscurf: can't test that.

@all: i opened a bug report on miui-germany.de. if anybody knows a better place for miui bugreporting i would be thankfull for a link or even better for an opned bugreport and a link to it.

we must make the miui devs knowing about this damn bug.
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
I will try to send them over twitter.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
something else.... tried the latest talon kernel for miui and found out two interesting things:

1. its ondemand implementation does not have the buggy powersave_bias setting. this one scales through the freqs as it should

2. the first time since this drain bug appeared i do not have it after a reboot Oo
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
I'll test TalonACE now, then.

Out of curiosity, since I haven't experienced the battery drain, how does it manifest itself? Screen off, just draining battery like crazy?

Has anyone with the drain problem used the BetterBatteryStats app? It shows any and all wakelocks, maybe it could pinpoint a wayward process or app? Just a suggestion.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
OK, Can anyone link to an earlier version without GPS issues for me to try please.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
sorry. but try google-ing arround a bit about this issue. i think i remember someone finding a solution some how. but i am not sure. maby i find it tomorrow. going to bed now.

Fix for the Backup Issue uploaded under Addons
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Nice.

Whatever you tweaked in v1.1 works. Its certainly snappier.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
cool! :cool:

which kernel do you use? lordmods 6.7.1 or stock or another one?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hmm, i have a strange issue. seems related to lordmods kernel 6.7.x:

suddently i observe that i do not have the mobile data connection icon in the notification bar (like 3G, H etc.) and hence i do not have mobile data active although it is enabled. disableing and reanabling does not help.

this happened two times till now (first time last friday on 1.7.29, second today). the first time i could reactivate it by enabeling roaming (then i disabled roaming and it remained working). this time even this does not help (sure a reboot would do).

anyone else? if so which kernel exactly were you using? i think it is the lordmods kernel.
[Desire HD Android Development] fuzzbeans:
That would be hugely appreciated.

Also, this rom is great. I have tried the official english one and i have tried another custom build from this sige. But i have to say this blows them all out of the water. Its stable, only one gui reboot in 3 days of trying to provoke errors. And battery life is great despite usage. It is also by far the smoothest.

i'am working on a simplified method of generating the multilanguage pack so that it makes far less work. if this succeedes you will get more regulary and faster multilanguage packs (yes including danish :D ).
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
MULTI LANGUAGE PACK for 1.8.5v1.1 now available.

future multilanguage packs will be faster available as i managed to make the converting process from XJs pack (nearly) automatic :D

enjoy!
[Desire HD Android Development] fuzzbeans:
Thanks a ton for doing this, it's actually quite odd trying it out in my native language, I was so used to the English version it took me a couple of minutes to set up my settings the way I like them. :D

Again, amazing rom, and thanks for the Danish translation!
[Desire HD Android Development] Stitch15:
After flasing and reboot my phone doesn't seem to get past the screen wilth the MIUI Android logo. Every 10 seconds the screen goes black for a second and then the logo appears again. Anyone had this as well? Already pulled the battery after about 5 minutes of waiting and tried again....

Edit: nevermind, fixed it. Wanted to flash the language pack right after the rom without reboot, that didn't work....

Dialler bug:

When I open dialler I normally enter the first couple of contacts initals to bring the corresponding names up, however I have 2 names that the dialler seems to skip either by initials or numbers Joe and Work.

Should bugs be reported here or to MIUI (if MIUI which url)

Could anyone please try enter these names to contacts and see if it works for them, thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hmm, i tried a bit myself and didn't find any issue. but i switched to go contacts for other reasons. i can check out a mod that i found, a modified miui t9 dialer with better support for other languages (that also have special letters). maybe that one works better.

regarding bug reporting... you could look around en.miui.com That's the official miui site.

p.s. i could need some recomendations.. i hate searching for my thread at page 2 :P
[Desire HD Android Development] getaceres:
I've installed this rom (fist ROM, second multi lang pack, third lordmod kernel) and I got a bootloop. The only thing that may be problematic in my configuration is that all the partitions are in ext4. Does your rom support it?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
sure it does. on installation it even formates system and cache to ext4.

did you made a full wipe before flashing? i mean did you also wiped /data partition?

you may try flashing only the rom and boot and see if that works.
[Desire HD Android Development] getaceres:
I did it. I wiped everything even cache and dalvik cache, although your rom formats it again. I've tried just ROM + language pack but still I got a bootloop.
[Desire HD Android Development] getaceres:
Installing just the rom works, but it's in german and I can't understand anything. Will try to install language pack.
[Desire HD Android Development] getaceres:
It works this way. I had to reboot twice to get all strings in spanish. However:

- In the keyboard not all numbers are visible. I only see 1 to 4, 5 and 9 above the letters. If I long press a letter without number above, I don't have the option to enter the number. However, if I press the numeric key, all the numbers are there.

- I get extremely low 3G speeds. It's the same with all the MIUI ROMS that I've tried. I'm in Vodafone Spain and it doesn't happen with Sense ROMs, in which I get excelent 3G speeds.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
screen off and idle and current widget logs something like this:

-50mA

-52mA

and so on....

and wakelocks etc look fine. nothing uncommon.

drain can be fixed till reboot with charging a bit (20sec is enough).

i had that on stock kernel, on lordmod 7.3 and later, and since 1.9.30. now for the very first time i do not have it after a reboot. but i have reports from others having it even with the talon kernel if i remember right.
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
Very interesting... I'll let you know what I find out here as well, just switched to TalonACE 1.06.

To get CurrentWidget to log, do I turn battery reporting in MIUI on or off? I forget...

Hi,

So, a user, can you confirm that using last version with talon's Kernell fixed the drain bug?

best regards
[Desire HD Android Development] inzaghi75:
It´s not fixed with kernel. It´s the ROM issue.
[Desire HD Android Development] shadowlabs9:
Yes, but a user said in lord thread:

"EDIT: and something else: WTF since i flashed the talon kernel the mi 50mA drain disapeared Oo

i don't get it as others reported it even with talon if i remember right. this is the first time since before 1.9.30 that i do not have the drain after a boot."

so, maybe it is solved...

[Desire HD Android Development] mrbubba999:
I flashed the talon kernel and no drain now (not charged phone either)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
I am bit confused. am still testing and was talking to Lord clockan.

While ondemand on talon kernel has done working powersave_bias ondemandx does not.

Am using currently a value of 150 and it is butter smooth. But gpu performance is still better on lordmod, though the gap got smaller.
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
well, than we will work on that :)

when people stop using my kernel, I'll change phones :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
Don't worry. This won't happen. But you know i was always jumping around testing. Its the best easy to find opportunities for improvement.

Edit: also i remember reports that stock kernel has the drain too. So it must be related to the Rom, at least partially.
[Desire HD Android Development] inzaghi75:
Do you use now ondemand on Talon kernel without sleep profile and set powerbias 150? is that right?
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Just for the record I tried Talon kernel and still had drain, imo rom issue.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
Yeah, we previously had reports of the drain with talon. But I wonder what makes it stopping even over a reboot.

I know charging fixes it till a reboot. But why it happens for some to fix it at least till the Rom gets reflashed
